End to end performance for every application is the most important aspect of any IT business. A good application performance tool helps in the testing process and can be the smartest way of measuring end to end performance in applications. Majority of APM vendors only offer products for specific applications. As a result, several different APM vendors and products are typically used and many internal applications go unsupported.

When it comes to determining end to end performance, there are only two metrics that mean something to everyone: response time and availability. For many years, response time and availability metrics have been included in design objectives for application development and also in service level agreements.

Increasingly today, different types of enterprises are starting to rely upon complex, multi-tier applications to conduct IT service management and business service management. These types of high level security applications are engaged across industries of banking, telecommunications, securities, government, financial applications, online trade, medical care and many more which have a huge database. These applications require end to end monitoring and quick response time to ensure end to end performance of an application.

End to end performance testing helps in estimating how many virtual users an environment can handle. It can also prevent unpleasant situations when the application is being tested in the production environment. End to end performance testing is a vital component for all IT businesses but is a complex and time consuming task.

Tevron’s CitraTest APM is an all encompassing APM solution that addresses the needs of end to end performance, application monitoring based on the real user experience, availability monitoring and service level agreement (SLA) enforcement for all applications across an organization. CitraTest APM is a powerful and comprehensive suite for testing end to end performance. It is a solution for faster problem resolution, easier deployment and administration, as well as a complete performance management platform. Knowing the overall end to end performance and availability of all applications across the enterprise on a real-time basis is critical for the success of any business.

Unlike most APM products, CitraTest APM is totally non-intrusive to the production environment. Absolutely no elements of CitraTest APM are installed on any application or database servers, thereby making CitraTest APM fully non-intrusive and independent of the application environment, just like a real user.
